Funny but Oxygen tanks don’t explode unless you heat them up a whole lot.
What would happen is that any open flame is that it would grow many many sizes bigger.
Anything that would smoulder a bit when exposed to an open flame with quite happily burn quite energetically.
Example extra fine steel wool – as tinder would glow and create some sparks – on O2 would go off like flash powder.
Wonder if anyone has put a birthday cake into pure oxygen and made a video as yet?
My grandmother smoked for years after it got her put on oxygen. The thing that finally made her quit was pretty much a less humorous (and less fatal) real-life panel four: she forgot to take off the tube when she went to light a cigarette, and a blue flash appeared in front of her. The woman immediately ripped the oxygen tube off and shut down the pump, probably saving the entire block from becoming a crater. To the day she died, she had melted plastic from the oxygen tubes still fused to the inside of her nose. It did provide an excellent motivation for actually quitting, though, and caused her to institute a “go on the balcony if you must smoke” rule for anyone else.

Disapproving father, upset that his daughter is dating Craig the grease fire.
The annoyed candle is bloody amazing indeed. Well worth it.
Oxygen is neither flammable, nor explosive. It just makes things burn faster.
Double-dog dare ya….
This is a good anti-smoking PSA!

Here is steel wool and cheese puffs https://youtu.be/lHo-NcSaQwU
Still no cake
Couldn’t you just take the ventilator off briefly, aim it at the candles, and put it back on?
Like a cannula to a flame. 🙂
The wax drippings as feet for the candle, nice touch.
There’s always canned air.

Just cough those candles out…then nobody else will want to eat the cake, so you get all of it for yourself!
